Slot hails ‘humble’ Liverpool star amid goalscoring form

Wait 5 sec.

Arne Slot believes Dominik Szoboszlai’s goalscoring form means the midfielder will start getting overdue ‘credit’ from those outside Liverpool circles.Szoboszlai scored for the second straight game as Liverpool beat Newcastle 2-0 to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League to 13 points. The Hungarian has had his critics for a lack of goal threat at Liverpool, but now has seven goals and six assists across all competitions this season.Goals in back-to-back games for the first time in the Premier League Dominik Szoboszlai’s was in control for Liverpool @Oracle pic.twitter.com/jZxemPJ7n8— Premier League (@premierleague) February 26, 2025Speaking at his post-match press conference, Slot said he was delighted for the 24-year-old. He hopes Szoboszlai will start getting the same appreciation from others that he has long held at Liverpool for his humble work rate and quality.“[I’m] very pleased for him because he’s the type of player that always looks for a teammate in a better position than him if he has a chance,” Slot said.“That is also what you saw against Villa, when he played that ball square for Darwin [Nunez]. For him to be on the scoresheet now for a player that is as humble as he is when he gets a chance, but especially because of his unbelievable work-rate and what does for the team, he definitely deserves [it].“I think he was Man of the Match today, or at least he came in with the trophy so I assume he was. He deserves the credit he is getting at the moment.
